Amazing Food

Salma and Sierra took their time to create a menu that not only worked for our budget but also met the needs of our guests. The food was mouthwatering and their team took great care of us.

My family hired them to cater for my bridal shower also and the presentation and bites were amazing !

Meals tend to bring people together so to have a chef that cares about flavors that nourishes and makes everyone happy is essential for an amazing event.

Forever Grateful!!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Chef Salma cater our wedding in St.John and words cannot fully capture how incredible the experience was. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to make our culinary vision a reality—exceeding our wildest expectations in every possible way.

From the moment we first spoke with her, it was clear that she not only listened carefully to our requests but truly understood how to bring them to life with creativity, precision, and passion. Every dish was a work of art, thoughtfully crafted to reflect our tastes, cultural influences, and the fresh, vibrant flavors of the islands.

What set Chef Salma apart was her ability to take our ideas and elevate them into something extraordinary. She sourced the finest local ingredients, infused them with her signature flair, and presented everything beautifully. Every bite was a revelation—bursting with flavor, expertly balanced, and made with such care that our guests are still raving about the meal.

Beyond her undeniable talent in the kitchen, Chef Salma and Sierra were a joy to work with. They were professional, warm, and genuinely invested in making our day as special as possible. They handled every detail seamlessly, ensuring that the entire dining experience flowed effortlessly.
If you are looking for a private chef who will not only meet but surpass every expectation, Chef Salma is the one. She turned our wedding dinner into an unforgettable feast, and we are forever grateful for her talent, dedication, and passion. A true culinary artist!

Thank you, Chef Salma and Sierra, for making our wedding day even more magical than we ever imagined!"
